Book Review ~ Phoebe Deane

2/19/2015

0 Comments

 
    Phoebe Deane is another Grace Livingston Hill novel and a sequel to Marcia Schuyler.
    When Phoebe was young her mother died leaving her to the care of a much older half brother.  His wife uses Phoebe as a maid-of-all-work.  Phoebe works hard with nothing in return.  Her sister in law is not nice to her and the children have no respect for her.  But all of that is nothing compared to the man to whom her sister in law is trying to marry her off.
    Phoebe has no time for social life and therefore has no friends.  Miranda (from Marcia Schuyler) helps her out one time and a friendship blossoms between the two.  But Phoebe's sister-in-law does not think Phoebe should have time for friends.
    The over-worked, lonely girl struggles for a while before falling sick.  Miranda works hard to free Phoebe but the sister-in-law stands in the way.
Will Phoebe find freedom, friends, and real love?
    This is not one of my favorite books.  It's good and I like it but it is not one of my favorites.
Miranda of course was great! She goes to great lengths to help her friend.
    This book was a nice addition to Marcia Schuyler and if you liked that one you will have to read this one.
    It can be found on Amazon and eBay.

Little Sisters Good Jumper Re-make

I did have Walt (she takes all my pictures now that Bobbie is no longer living here) take pictures of this one before it was ripped apart.  Here are the before and after pictures.

Once again I ripped the whole thing apart.  Actually Walt might have ripped this one, I honestly don't remember.=)
    I used this pattern to cut out the jumper.  I cut the skirt out of the skirt pieces of the dress and the bodice pieces from the bodice.  There was not enough to fully line the bodice with the same fabric so I used a white piece we had lying around.

I crocheted the bolero to go over it from a pattern I made up.

        37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.                      38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor                 powers,     nor things present, nor things to come,
        39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the                 love of     God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
